Next up
Here I am, still trying to push the limits. I'm pretty sure there's a shader for Mode 7 out there, but this is what I've been working with.
Also, because of limitations, red flashing floors generate force fields you can bump into.
The only thing harder than animating a set of wheels is making it handle like a set of wheels.
...and making an infinite floor without resorting to the official 3D engine.
First off, you can't rotate a background with draw_background_tiled. However, you can draw anything on a BIG surface, and a surface can be rotated and doubled up.
So, the infinite floor uses a surface, and now it's not chugging so hard. Look at the FPS.
All this work to get punched in the face.
I was considering releasing the expansion today, but then I found a lot of bugs I should've spotted in the original build, and I made the minimap do extra stuff for said expansion.
Don't worry, it'll be out by tomorrow night.
I might have gone too far in a few places, and not enough in others.
I felt some mechanics were underutilized, so I'm making an expansion.
...more or less just a side quest and extra dungeon. No more than that here.
Coming who-knows-when.
The best way to let everyone play with whatever controller they want is to let players test it out, reconfigure it, and let them test it again.
...it's a bit messy, since this is a game that should support two players.
I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.
I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.
He's coming back. ...but just this once.
